EBOLA IS
A TERRIFYING DISEASE BUT YOU ARE STILL SAFE TO TRAVEL TO TANZANIA AND OTHER
EAST AFRICAN COUNTRIES.

At
Kilimanjaro Vacation Company the health and safety of our clients is number one
priority and with the alarming and incomplete publicity reports on Ebola, we
will be giving you travel updates if it’s still safe to travel.

Over
the last few months there has been widespread and often frightening coverage of
the Ebola outbreak in parts of West Africa, and our thoughts are with all those
fighting this terrible disease.

At the same time as the coverage has highlighted that the disease is not
airborne and can only be contracted by contact with body fluids from an
infected person, and as of this widespread information we have had a number of
people asking if it is safe to travel to Tanzania, and other destinations in
East Africa.

Africa Is A huge Continent distance must be put into consideration.

The definite answer is ‘yes – you can still safely travel to Tanzania and Other
East African Countries like Kenya, since up to this time we have not seen any
case since the outbreak and this trace back to 1976 since the disease was
noted’, however given the seriousness of the situation they are things to consider
like the distance from the center of the outbreak and Tanzania which is 3,000
miles and this is the same distance from West Africa to London so if you are in Europe why should you
not make your dream trip to Africa ,Tanzania in particular.

Safari package is primarily designed for those clients who are curious to trace
back the originality of human Civilization. Kilimanjaro Vacation Company’s
skilled group of guides will take you in deep areas of the Hadza settlement and

Life
of the Hadza Hunter.

The
Hadza people are an ethnic group living in central Tanzania around Lake Eyasi
in the central Rift Valley and in the neighboring Serengeti Plateau. The Hadza
people raise no livestock, grow no food, and live without calendars or rules.
They are living a hunter-gatherer existence that is little changed from 10,000
years ago. It is estimated that the Hadza number just under 1000. Today they
are the last functioning hunter-gatherers in Africa.

Subsistence: The Hadza are highly skilled, hunters and foragers, who
adjust their diet according to season and circumstance.
Division of laborWomen forage for berries, tubers and greens depending on
availability. They use a digging stick and large skin pouches hung around the
neck for carrying items. While men specialize in procuring meat, honey, and
baobab fruit, women specialize in tubers, berries, and greens.

Community:The
Hadza move camp for a number of reasons. Conflict is resolved primarily by
leaving camp; camps frequently split for this reason. Camps are abandoned when
someone falls ill and dies as illness is associated with the place they fell
ill. Religion : their own
religion is minimalist. They do have a cosmology and men can tell endless
stories about how things came to be. Clothing : Although most Hadza wear western style
shorts and shirts, many still prefer traditional dried animal skins draped
across the body as clothing.
